  2. Ask your broker for a fee sheet. There you can figure out exactly who's the best for you to execute...

  4. OK guys, I'm still getting raped w/ fees. I'm attempting to place orders btwn the bid/ask spread, but that only works once in a while.

    Take a look at this fee raping. Again, my commission rate is $4 per 1000 shares. I'm even going to show the stocks that I bought so far today. I'm whiting out one b/c it was an embarassment and I placed a market order on it.

    Can somebody please help me :)

    Again, I'm new to the game, and only trading on 200 share lots now.

  5. OK.

    First example. B300 S300. 600 x .004 = 2.40 for commish.

    If you took liquidity on ECN and paid .003 x 600 = 1.80 = $4.20 (You show $4.64 - SEC + ?)...if you would have parked on ECN and received .0025 x 600 = $1.50 your way. That is a difference of $3.30 by parking vs. taking.

    Not much to it overall.

    Am I missing something?

  6. Don I'm confused. What do u mean by 'parking on ECN'

  7. Parking on ECN = putting your order on the queue, adding liquidity.

  8. Do you get charged the "remove liquidity" fee AND the route-out fee if sending market orders?

  9. with a market order you'll get charged the routed fee... or the remove fee, but not both.

    May I ask :

    If I send 2 orders at the same time,
    One Buy at Bid 1000 shares x 4.01
    Second Sell at Ask same 1000 Shares x 4.02
    The stock is trading 200 Mil day
    What are the chances that both orders will be excecuted,
    and if they are, do I recieve two credits, for for Buy and for Sell ?

    If yes then my profit will be 10+2.5+2.5-(commission 2)=13$

    I'm I missing something?

    Thanks
